Abstract. We describe in this paper the surface photometry of a set of lenticular galaxies. We then consider important correlations between morphological parameters of the bulges of lenticulars and other types of galaxies.1

Keywords: lenticular galaxies - galaxy morphology - photometry.

 

1 A discussion on galaxies from the GOODS survey was included in the talk by A.K. Kembhavi at the Abu symposium on which this paper is based. That discussion is covered in a separate paper by A. Rawat and A.K. Kembhavi in these proceedings and will not be considered here.
